Acting Principal - Project Management & -Support

After having spent the first few years of my career in product design, I deliberately moved over into the more structured and organised environment of project management. Starting off my career change saw me involved in project administration and support of asset management and software implementation projects at PWC, where our clients were predominantly governmental entities.

Growing up in a predominantly engineering and construction oriented family during a time when the speculative building projects were frequently the topic of conversation, it’s an area in which I find familiarity and joy. I take pleasure in the visibility and measurability of building projects, combined with the structure and processes of capital intensive projects which dominates the mining sphere.

I find working with a large team of professionals incredibly stimulating as there is so much variety and something new to learn from each and every person. I take joy in working with a plan to deliver quality work consistently, resulting in credibility that my clients can trust. I conform to the “raise-your-hand” philosophy when it comes to servicing clients; always being willing to do even the grunt work enthusiastically, and thereby establishing healthy work relationships and bringing a positive atmosphere into my work environment.

At home I’m a passionate equestrian, focusing on dressage with my recently acquired young mare. I enjoy a good pinotage, preferably served with great food and shared with friends and family. I have it on my bucket list to see major migration in Serengeti or the wild horses of the Namib Desert on horseback, and my arm can easily be twisted with Haagen Dazs ice cream or Lindt chocolate.
